A Smaller Scripture History: In Three Parts: Old Testament History; Connection of Old and New Testaments; New Testament History to A. D. 70 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from A Smaller Scripture History: In Three Parts: Old Testament History; Connection of Old and New Testaments; New Testament History to A. D. 70
To Simplify the plan, and to suit the comprehension of the young, the book is confined for the most part to a narrative of leading facts, avoiding critical discussion on the one hand, and theological exposition on the other. The Notes, which have been added very sparingly, on points which could scarce ly be left unexplained, are intended chiefly, for the teacher. Other matters, which the teacher may desire to introduce at his discretion, will be found in the Student's Manuals of Old Testament and of New Testament History, the order of which is here generally followed.
As the book is meant to be used with, and not at all in place of, the Bible, many of those exquisite stories, which are only Spoiled by the attempt to repeat them in other words, are merely referred to, leaving the details to be read in Scripture itself; and thus space has been gained to make the general narrative more complete.
